Indie Soap Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Indie Soap Awards honor the best in professional, independently produced, scripted & serialized TV series (usually broadcast on the web). Established in 2009 by We Love Soaps, LLC—a boutique Manhattan media company that champions serialized entertainment in all forms—the 4th Annual Indie Soap Awards, or ISA4, is scheduled for February 19, 2013 at New World Stages. The nonprofit Indie Series Network is this year's charity sponsor. Their mission is "to bring quality, independently-produced TV series, with socially relevant messaging and artistic merit, to under-served audiences."[1]

History of the Awards

In 2010, the Awards were an Internet-only event. In 2011, Martha Byrne hosted a live gala at Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, and in 2012, Colleen Zenk opened the ceremony at New World Stages with a live musical performance and closed it with the help of Fan Yang's Gazillion Bubble Show.

Traditionally, the Awards are attended by an eclectic assortment of Television and Broadway actors active in the scripted web serial genre, such as Tracie Thoms, Patrika Darbo, Kim Zimmer, Vincent Pastore and so on.
